Ask HN: Which significant discovery in your youth changed your life forever?
In my case, it was discovering that my DOS 6.22 disks came with an open source game called GORILLA.BAS.
Soon after tearing that code apart, I found myself intensely working through Denthor and NeHe's tuts, and some time later, I now enjoy writing software for a living.
Life sure would have been different had I not explored those disks.

Can anyone relate?
